Linux provides one of the best backup solutions. It is very simple to enable and can be used to backup your entire network including window shares.
I run sbackup on my dedicated linux server to backup my network to my local drive mounted on /var/backup.
This mount, /var/backup, can be mounted on your primary hard disk or as a media mount to a USB external drive.
I personally mount /var/backup on my primary drive and then rsync the files to a USB external drive once a week. During the week the USB external drive goes into a fire proof safe for storage and rotated once a month to a offset safety deposit box.
